New Environmental Campaign Glorifies Eco-Fascism

The people behind the “10:10″ campaign, a movement encouraging people to reduce their carbon consumption by 10 percent in 2010, have been forced to pull their controversial new advertisement from the internet after widespread public outcry. The gruesome 4-minute ad depicts global warming skeptics being literally blown to pieces after their tree-hugging friends insist they’re under “no pressure” to modify their carbon consumption.

Did they attempt to sabotage their own movement or something?

I think they are trying to push their agenda by jokingly introduce extreme ideas, so the real ideas they try to pass dont seem so horrendous. You know, like when you want to get 10 so you ask for 15.

New Environmental Campaign Glorifies Eco-Fascism

Actually, I can't see any glorification here.

My guess is, that they try to show that the current situation is that critical, that they can't afford to hesistate.
